Contacted Adobe: render the file. And that worked!
-
This exact question was posed 2 years ago with zero response. I looked on the web and cannot find any worthwhile info, other than lots of complaints about this very issue. I need to export the video by tomorrow to because it is being shown in a festival next week. PLEASE, creative cow community, come through for me!

I had the same issue and can’t recall the link but I believe I went to Adobe help. They walk you through downloading the old PP, removing just the PP files but not encore, then copying over and moving to PP CC. It works, just takes some time. Hope that a might help.

Showing my ignorance but…. when I save it as a h.264 it will be a mp4 and when I do it as quicktime, using h.264, it is a .mov. What is the difference? I tested it as a quicktime, h.264, with 15mbps and it is better. Even the font is no longer squiggly/pixled. But, what is the effective difference between mp4 & .mov?

Thank you. I set the files to be 1080 on vimeo but then, ah, I realized if I click that little HD down in the corner of the video it looks better!
The original file in PP looks great, the file I saved is so-so and the vimeo is now better than it was. I will try the various options suggested to see if the saved file can improve. And hence the vimeo will be as good as can be.
Again, thank you for sharing your knowledge.

So I tested it with just the PP settings and it is MUCH better! I did keep the top settings the same, the Quicktime slot, which I’m wondering if that is the correct option for the video to be projected at the film festivals. Here’s what I used:
Format: Quicktime
Preset: Custom
then the rest as you suggested:
Video Codec: Apple ProRes 422
Frame Rate: native (30)
Field Order: native
Aspect native (square 1.0)
Render max @ 48 bit
use max render quality
Audio uncompressed
sample size: 16
sample rate: 48000 @ stereo.Since you were so helpful, I’m wondering if you could tell me what export settings I should use for a different video. I shot it with a Canon 5D Mark III and the underwater stuff with my iPhone. My client wants to burn the footage to a CD for distribution to educators & and have it on their website via vimeo. The sequence is set for the 5D III and the iPhone just “doesn’t match the sequence”. Thank you again for your help. Indispensable!!!

Lots of good info – thank you. Only problem is I am using a trial version of Adobe PP so I don’t have encoder. Should I just export using the output you suggested from PP? Soon I will upgrade to PP CC but waiting for some deal with PP instead of LR which I already have…
Once a week for 52 weeks I photographed something going on at the James River as it runs through Richmond. So, I just used the regular video on iPhone but tapping the screen to get the widescreen HD dimensions.

Ironically, the colored captions show up on YouTube and nowhere else! Well, maybe on a TV but I don’t now one of those. Thanks for the input, fellow PP people.

April 25, 2014 at 10:11 pm in reply to: Closed Captions not retaining colors when exportedSeems to me the colors should work since PP offers the ability to color code the cc text. And move it around so the cc doesn’t overlap any name badges or such. In the adobe tutorial, it shows editing the cc text with color and positioning, then just exporting it. No mention of HD or tricks to get the colors to appear.
I hope someone can offer me a solution. I have 3 or 4 speakers come and go so it’d be really nice to code their responses to keep up with each speaker. Rather than just the parenthesis that works within one clip.
If it were only good with HD, how would I change my export to adapt to that?
